Anyone know if a Bontrager XR4 2.4 will fit in the back of an Orange Clockwork evo 29?
I emailed Orange and they said max rear is 2.4, but I've read the Bontragers come up big.
MBR of some one reviewed it recently. They didn't seem wild about rear tyre clearance
That review mentions that it comes with a 2.4 WTB Ranger, but can't see them saying that clearance is limited.
Measurements from mine.
Tyre WTB Ranger 2.4 (55-622) 60mm at widest point

I have a 2018 Clockwork 129 S and am running Teravail Honchos 2.6 on Hunt Trailwide rims. Clearance is definitely tight, but has never caused me an issue. I'd imagine the Bontrager's will be fine and give you plenty of mud clearance.

Thanks, that's great. Looks like it will be fine then.
I've had an XR4 2.4 in the back of mine on a 35mm rim 👍
